Private computers aren't always the least secure.

It all depends on the individual user. I am sure that many readers of el Reg could set up a private computer to be MUCH more secure than systems set up for government agencies by outsourced IT departments whose only interest is keeping shareholders happy.

I'm betting that Edward Snowden's personal laptop was tons more secure than CIA network systems he was working on.
